Internet Marketing legitimately taken a very important place among the various management practices and strategic solutions that business leaders use to stimulate sales and improve performance. The last decade can be considered the age of the Internet and computer technology. Only a few years ago many people did not know what exactly the Internet was, and few people used it on a regular basis for their work. Today, it is difficult to find someone living in a civilized society that has never used the internet. Almost everyone knows what it is and what it used to, even if few people have a clear understanding of how it actually works. Nevertheless, the Internet is now the mass media which has a range more than television and radio. Long before the Internet became an important part of our lives to realize that companies advertising in the media was the key element of marketing. While marketing is a much wider field of commercial activity with the aim of it is really about selling more products to more customers at the highest price possible. Media advertising leads to information about products and thus the viewers or readers who are potential customers aware of their existence. The marketing mix consists of several components and the overall supply is essentially a business allows a client. It includes the four Ps are product, price, promotion and place. Products and prices are essentially the key elements that define the offer to the customer. The product is characterized by elements such as quality, functionality, reliability, design etc. Price is another component that determines the perceived value for the customer. However, the price is usually determined on the basis of general characteristics of a product. If a company has a high quality product then it may set a high price for the product is better than a competitor. Thus the first and most important thing is to have a product, then the second step is to determine the price. However, what also contributes to the perceived value for the customer is in place and promotion. Place determines the convenience or distribution channels that our company uses imagination. If a product is available in every supermarket and convenience, it is more likely to sell and therefore will be perceived as more useful by the client. The promotion is another important element of the marketing mix and can not be ignored. Even if a company has a great product that sells for a reasonable price and can be picked up at any convenience store, it is important for the promotion and advertising of the product so that people know that this product is available market. The company needs to attract customer's attention on the product he sells otherwise it would not be very far from defeat. Currently there are millions of products out there on the market and people literally lose themselves when they enter a store. Promotion helps people concentrate and focus only on products that are advertised by ignoring the rest of the products. The role of the Internet in the marketing mix is evident. Certainly, the Internet can do very little to create a product and price. However, it can greatly influence the other two components. Promotion and place are directly affected by the Internet. The Internet offers a new distribution channel for a company because of this point on you can sell the product online, then give it straight to the customer within a certain geographical area. The promotion is another thing that can be improved by simply starting to use the Internet as a new means of sales and marketing. As already mentioned, the Internet is a great way of advertising in terms of its scope. Thus, the Internet can increase the perceived value of the product is marketed. Currently, it is common for any company regardless of the nature of that activity is to add the Internet into the marketing mix. Many producers and consulting firms see the Internet as an important element of marketing. However, there are different ways to use this incredible resource. A few years ago, it was believed that the advertising banners that appear on the screen of the computer each time a user opens a new window to provide a great contribution to the perceived value of a product. Subsequently, companies wasted millions and millions of dollars in advertising. Later, they realized that all that money was literally burned because computer users are so irritated by banners and windows that appear on the screen they stop immediately not even read the contents. Almost all computer users report that Internet advertising should be regulated and controlled because the unlimited access to information and resources on the part of advertisers makes the job unbearable irritating and slows performance. In today's business does not lose more money on useless banners. I believe that companies should not use the Internet as a primary means of marketing. I should not be used as a basis. Rather, what the Internet can do is contribute greatly to the overall image of the company. In my opinion, a company that integrates the Internet into its marketing mix should provide a valuable service to the customer via its website. For example, an imaginary producer of computer parts can provide detailed information about their products and provide online support to all its customers by e-mail. Web page must also provide insightful information about the company itself and some news that may be of interest to the customer. In other words, the site would attract users of computers and do not distract them. Thus, the marketing component must be addressed. The internet marketing component should contribute to the overall image of the company. However, companies can not use the Internet the same way they use television. On television viewers are forced to watch the trade irritants because they can not disable them, all they can do is pass the channel. And this is what actually happens a lot of time. Similar approaches do not work on the Internet because computer users can bypass irritating pop-up ads and banners and proximity. Therefore, companies must be much more creative and imaginative while advertising on the Internet. Another thing that is done by almost all businesses today is to sell products online. Many customers perceive it as a great service because it is possible to buy almost anything without even leaving home. This strategy is used effectively by most producers because it creates additional distribution channels and thereby increases the perceived value of the product. Customers perceive our imaginary product that value because it is easier to buy. In examining the situation from a financial perspective, it is a common fact that most dotcoms failed because they burn too much cash, and possibly running out of money to meet their current financial obligations. Analysis of income statements of Internet startups, we can see that too much money is wasted on ineffective advertising. Thus, expenses incurred by the dotcom outweigh the potential revenue they can generate. A few years ago the share prices of most internet companies went through the roof because people liked the idea of conducting business on the Internet. But nobody really knew how to internet companies value. That's why most investors today are frustrated and share prices of dotcoms fell to the ground. I think the main problem with dotcoms is that their financial models were not sustainable from the start. Most Internet companies required large capital inflows in the hope that one day they would help generate income. In addition, companies with revenues waste too much money on advertising and marketing is not a good thing to do given the fact that money is absolutely necessary to maintain the existence of company. To illustrate, I would like to see how Dell Computer successfully integrate the Internet into their marketing mix. The company sells customized computer systems on the Internet. Its products are not available at any retail outlet and the Internet is the main channel of distribution for this company. The web page of Dell Computer serves two purposes. First is an online store that is used for controlling computer systems. In addition, it provides information on all the products this company makes and sells through its online store. The other purpose it serves is building the company brand and image. Internet can be a great thing for a company is to create a relationship with the client. If this resource is managed the right way customers real link with society. The success of Dell Computer lies in effective management of the Internet as a resource and means of communication, quality products and excellent technical support that is available almost everywhere. This is why people go and Dell instead of buying another brand. The Internet is an important resource that a company can use to his advantage. There are many companies that use it successfully. However, if not used appropriately it can generate losses for the company and even have a negative impact on corporate image. Thus, it should be carefully integrated into the marketing mix. On the one hand it creates an effective distribution channel and for another it is a very effective means of advertising and brand building.

As an avid Tori Amos fan, I confess often her genius to friends, relatives, colleagues and anyone who will listen. But I'm the first to admit that her brilliant songwriting, live to the world of personal symbols, it is not clearly captured in her music videos. As Tori Amos eschews conventional MTV artist status, she is usually successful without the hype of the video medium. Whether it is due to a bad election of directors or her songs opposition to visual cementation has Tori music videos were typically disappointing. The exception is "1000 Oceans", a song from the double album to Venus and back. Erick Ifergan, director, took one of Tori's more accessible tracks and created a visual statement about human empathy. A great assembly of people's reactions in a glass case installation, it is "1000 Oceans" video sly and nuanced. The video follows Tori character encased in a solid glass booth in the middle of a nondescript urban street scene. Although my inclination is that the name Chicago as a backdrop, is the specific location largely irrelevant. The viewer only needs to understand that there is a diverse city with enough passersby to stop and interact with the glass pane while others pass by obliviously. Dressed in a black dress, Tori is in this museum-like cases in the course of a day. The black dress is not just grief but also suggests a white wedding was black. In keeping with the song's simple lyrics about love and loss raises dress feelings of both Union (marriage) and separation (departure, death). While supine and motionless at the points moved Tori figure also around the box. She is installed in the city as a living sculpture. A short procession of nuns. A riot-instigating it. A NONPLUSSED senior. A goth-inspired spa girl things short with her boyfriend. An overweight whore in a leopard teddy. These are some of the notable passers who stay one to interact with the glass box. At one time, the video is bizarre and realistic, which serves as a metaphor for our human reactions to other people. Strangers as we have no connection other than humanity can be many answers (including ignorance of our existence), but anyone who stops for even a second to evaluate our presence - on the street, in a shop, on a bus, at a coffee shop - will have a clear response in us. They see the context for our lives: we exist as a living art. We are our own movement takes on the human condition, and people use it with varying degrees of awareness. In the case of "1000 Oceans", the Tori figure is emoting, are in a public place where city residents can choose to see her or ignore her. The passers-by who see her appear confused, amused, curious, contemptuous, surprised, shameful, disinterested, critical, taunting and likeable. This series of human responses to the enclosed figure is fascinating, but not unreasonable. I think particularly reflective glass was a purposeful director elections. We can see through the glass, although it is available as an obstacle - and in some cases, we are accustomed to see reflections of ourselves in the glass. Ultimately, it is not what happens when we experience an emotional or intellectual reaction to the stimulus of another person? Our answer to the second reflects our response to ourselves. A city is thus a museum of human contacts, missed and made. Near the end of the video, stay for a family on the glass pane. A mother, father, son and daughter into the picture. They look like an American family on their way to or from church, neatly dressed with bright, warm colors. It is clear that they have a specific answer to Tori figure, and director elections reflect this. . Unlike all the previous passers seem family represent a broader human family balanced in age and sex, are the parents and children - and providers. Their skin marks them in our society as "black" in a way that differs from, but similar, how Tori thought is characterized by her black dress of mourning and loss. Her pink lipstick matched her father's shirt and echoed in his son's lips. And the use of an American family are calling the associations of travel over the oceans (during slavery) when people were separated tragically. These visual cues set the tone for the relations of humanity. The family's view of Tori figure is slow. Illuminated by a street lamp at night, faces glow in their eyes and are quite recognizable: human empathy. There is a respect, a knowing homage and a warmth that makes their response richer than everyone else. At the tip of the video, emerges the sense of empathy as the ultimate human response to grief, sorrow, pain and loss. Now is touching and beautiful - and yet subtle, natural and sincere. It deepens the song by adding a new layer of understanding, and that is what a good video should do. Kudos to Tori Amos for the song and Erick Ifergan for superb director's vision.
